Badge behind fell behind grill

[Camaro_Mike]

I was trying to install my front SS badge on my SS and the badge fell behind this front fascia. Is there any way to retrieve it without taking off front fascia?

you can try and undue the 2 bolts under the bumper and try and reach your hand in there from the bottom.

undo the bottom 2 bolts or take the top pieces above and reach down ...

I have a spitter on which is preventing me from taking off bolts.

Can you see it at all ? Just thought of this if it sitting on the bottom undo a wheel well on the bumper side (3 torx bolts and couple of body clips) and then you can get to the bottom of the bumper!!!

Yes I can see it. Can I reach the bottom grill from both sides of the wheel well?

I did something like that when installing my new SS emblem a couple months ago. I removed the radiator shroud plate (where the hood latch is) and then reached in with a pair of pliers to get the part.

yes mike from either side you can see the lower grill , through the wheel well is how you change drl or fog bulbs etc, also above is maybe slightly harder try the wheel wells before going from above. Providing it fell that far down?

Yup it is lying on this surface right below the lower grill. But looking inside the lower grill I can't see the wheel well. I'll just have to try once I get home.
